1. Beat butter with an electric mixer until completely smooth and creamy.

Transfer to an airtight container, and chill until firm, about 1 hour.

"For one of my birthdays, all of my friends chipped in and gave me the smoker of my dreams, knowing that they would benefit from it. Ever since then, my suburban New Jersey neighbors have gotten to enjoy the smells of my Thanksgiving turkey as it smokes in the backyard."

Applewood chips lend a slightly sweet and fruity flavor to the meat. You can also try smoking the turkey with cherry or alder wood chips for more delicate smoked flavor.

Blended corn tortillas add a delicious masa flavor and give the chili extra body. We like to top ours with a dollop of sour cream and some shredded cheese to add a delicious creamy flavor, but for a hotter, meatier flavor, leave out these toppings. Regardless, this chili is perfect for a cozy night in.
